menstrual cycle after 15 years of not having, excessive weight gain

by Dina1, May 02, 2007 12:00AM
After roughly 15 years of menopause all of a sudden I have a period. Why would this happen? I have several medical issues, so PMS just got chalked up to other illnesses. My weight gain has been just awful the last 5 years. I've gone from 100lbs to 170lbs. I am careful what I eat, but why does it not seem to matter. Depression is terrible. Have been on anti-depressants for years. Why is the depression  at the point where I am very concerned. I have chronic depression, but have never felt this bad before. I have no ambition to do any thing. Is this apart of the menapause, or a combination of things?

Vaginal bleeding after menopause is not normal and you should definitely see a doctor. I hope you feel better soon. Depression is not fun. I have been feeling depressed for the first time in my life since dealing with female problems.
